9:30AM choral Rite II Eucharist
Holy Week & Easter Sheltering in Place
*All services will be live streamed on our Facebook page. They are posted here afterwards.
**Additional resources available at the bottom
The Great Easter Vigil:: Saturday, April 11 @ 8pm
In the Great Easter Vigil we move from the darkness of the tomb into the light of the resurrection. The service will begin after sundown. In it we will tell the story of the people of God. Usually we do this around the newly kindled fire in our Outdoor Sacred Space. This year, you are invited to light a candle and join us in darkness. We will tell the story using scripture, poetry, and stories. We will move into the celebration of Easter with shouts of "Alleluia" and light. You are invited to have other candles ready to be lit and other sources of light to turn on. Unfortunately, this year, we will not be able to celebrate Eucharist which is the proper culmination of this celebration. You are encouraged to have some type of celebratory treat prepared for yourself to celebrate after the service.
Easter Sunday:: Sunday, April 12 @ 10am
You are invited to join us as we join the Washington National Cathedral for their celebration of Easter. Our Presiding Bishop Michael Curry will be the preacher. We will create a watch party on our Facebook page at 10am. The Cathedral's service is actually at 8:15am PST (11:15am EST). So you're welcome to watch earlier, but we hope you'll join us at 10am!

Find out how to deter or get rid of rats in your garden.
Rats are unwelcome visitors in our gardens – they are considered vermin and can spread potentially serious diseases, including Leptospirosis, which can lead to Weil's disease. They can make their homes under decking, in sheds or greenhouses, and even in compost heaps.
Rats are mostly nocturnal so you may not see them, but there are other tell-tale signs. You may spot their tunnels (6-9cm in diameter) or their 'runs' – tracks alongside walls, fences or buildings that are up to 10cm wide. You might also notice their cylindrical droppings (around 15mm long and 5mm wide), gnawed wood (especially where food is stored), or parallel teeth marks in crops.
Rats require food, water and shelter in order to survive. Remove at least one of these and they are less likely to stick around.
Here are 10 steps you can take to prevent or deal with rats.
Rats can make their homes under decking, in sheds or greenhouses, and even in compost heaps.
Many rats are attracted by fallen food from bird feeders and will climb up feeding stations – squirrel proof feeders may help. Stop feeding birds or hedgehogs if you suspect an infestation, and secure chicken runs. Store bird and animal food in secure containers.
Tidy gardens are less likely to attract rats as they provide less cover. Keep grass short, clear cluttered storage areas, remove rubbish and reduce overgrown areas, especially near fences or garden buildings.
Rats are 'neo-phobic', which means they have a fear of new things. They don't like disruption to their territory, so place obstacles in their runs and move things around in the garden frequently.
The space beneath decking is perfect for rats – it's sheltered, hard to reach, and food scraps can fall between the planks. Sweep up any fallen food after alfresco meals. Block access if possible or consider installing a patio if the problem persists.
Be sure to block any holes in the walls, floors and doors of your garden buildings securely. You could add a metal 'kick plate' to your shed door to prevent entry.
Make your bin or heap uninviting – don't add food scraps and include green and brown materials so it's moist. Put chicken wire underneath to prevent access. Turn it regularly but bear in mind that other wildlife uses compost heaps too. If rats have made a home in your bin, don't use the compost on edible crops.
There's not much you can do to keep rats off your crops. Rats will eat sweetcorn, pumpkins, squash, root vegetables and apples, so once harvested, store them somewhere secure. If you suspect that stored or growing crops have been nibbled by rats, don't eat them. Rats also eat seeds, so store them securely.
Unlike mice, rats can't survive without water. If possible, remove water sources from your garden, including dripping taps. Secure drains and add baffles to drainpipes.
While it's not advisable to get a pet purely for the purpose of catching rats, especially as rats can carry disease, pets can be a good deterrent. They are a disruptive force in the garden, making the rats less likely to stay.
First, identify where the rats are living and feeding routes they take between them – in neighbouring gardens, too. Rats breed fast and are wary of new objects, so controlling them is difficult. Traps and poisons are sold at garden centres but must be used correctly – read the label. It is often better to contact your local council or professional pest controller.

Home Science & Tech Waterloo launches two new 3-D printers available to students
Waterloo launches two new 3-D printers available to students
Eduardo Ramirez
The University of Waterloo has purchased two 3-D printers that are available to students and located in the 3-D Print Centre inside the Engineering 5 building.
The two printers were presented to an audience of students, staff, and interested parties during the Engineering/Retail Services 3-D Print Centre Launch Nov. 11. The event featured a tour of the 3-D Print Centre, a didactical exhibition of 3-D printed artifacts, tools, and a fully 3-D printed Magnetic Resonance Imagining machine. The event also featured keynote speaker James Janeteas, the president of Cimetrix Solutions, who talked about the applications and future of the 3-D printing industry.
The two printers are now part of the new media services. According to the 3-D Print Centre website, "The 3-D Print Centre at the University of Waterloo provides low cost, high quality rapid prototyping and lends used parts to students, staff, and faculty, with a focus on undergraduate students and teams."
As stated by the website, the 3-D Print Centre features "two in-house production-grade fused deposition modeling 3-D printers as well as access to other 3-D printing technologies through our 3-D printing partner, Hyphen, based in Kitchener." Both of the printers use Fused Deposition Models, which is an additive manufacturing technology commonly used for modeling, prototyping, and production applications. FDM works on an "additive" principle by laying down material in layers; a plastic filament or metal wire is unwound from a coil and supplies material to produce a part.
The standard materials used for printing are either Polycarbonate-Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (PC-ABS) or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) as well as Polycarbonate (PC). Each of the materials have their advantages and limitations. Polycarbonate has the greatest heat resistance and strength; the designs printed on this material tend to be more accurate but it is not a flexible material. ABS is flexible as well as coming in many colours, but it is not as strong as other materials. Meanwhile PC-ABS combines the strength of the polycarbonate with the flexibility of ABS, making it the most popular 3-D printing material.
The 3-D Print Centre is available to all UW students, all you need to print your design is to create a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) model, save it as a .stl file, and take it to the 3-D Print Centre where an operator will help you select the best material for your part.
The 3-D Print Centre received it first order Jan. 2013 and has been widely used by undergraduate students as well as graduate researcher students, and local startups. Peter Teertstra, the director of the Sedra Student Design Centre, stated the reasons why the University of Waterloo decided to purchase the 3-D printers.
"Originally it was looking at student projects and they really needed a way to manufacture the parts that they were thinking of. They were trying to make things in masking tape or duct tape when they really needed to have access to a 3-D printer to make their dreams come true and build their parts."
A lot of fourth-year engineering students have taken advantage of the 3-D printing services since its first order in January 2013.
"The whole idea was to give students the ability to make the parts that they were able to design in their heads and on their computers…and to do it affordably" Teertstra said.
While most engineering students are aware of the 3-D print services, some students from other faculties are still unaware to the accessibility of these services.
"Most students in engineering are aware that we have a 3-D printer, what I really hope to achieve with this event and with bringing retail services on board is to make the rest of the campus aware that we have 3-D printing available to them."
In an interview with Janeteas, he shared what he believes to be the limitations with the current 3-D printing industry.
"I think the limitations come in a couple of formats, one of them is the education. Organizations and industries really does not understand what the applications of 3-D printing are, so that is always a challenge. Organizations need to learn and allow their designers to learn how to design in additive manufacturing, another term for 3-D printing, to really leverage it…secondly the system still needs to become faster and more reliable, and provide consistent yield rates in order for them to be really true production-based systems," Janeteas said.
The last part of the event featured a contest to name the printers. The two names chosen were Wall-E and Eve.

YouTube To Go Ad-Free, For A Fee
Filed Under:google, internet, YouTube
(Photo: ERIC PIERMONT/AFP/Getty Images)
LOS ANGELES (AP) – YouTube will soon give viewers the option of paying a monthly fee to skip ads.
On Wednesday, the online video service sent a letter to its most-popular content creators asking them to sign off on new contract terms to allow for the change.
It's not clear when the option will be offered or how much the fee will be.
A YouTube spokeswoman declined to confirm specifics but said in a statement, "giving fans more choice to enjoy the content they love and creators more opportunity to earn revenue are always amongst our top priorities."
The streaming video service owned by Google Inc. first offered pay channels in May 2013 and also launched a paid subscription, ad-free music service called Music Key to select participants in November.
The moves are all part of a strategy to diversify its revenues, although advertising remains its core. At a media conference in October, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki said ad-free subscriptions represent an "interesting model" and that the service was exploring how to give its users options.


The whole process of moving is pretty painful if you don't do it right. Even when you do get everything "right" the door is open to so many failure points that it's enough to cause some people a nervous breakdown. Not me. Despite all of the trouble, I like going to a new place and getting to know it.
There's also a lot of opportunity to hit the reset button when moving. You can clean up anything from your wardrobe to a dead end relationship all with a few choice packing decisions.
When I met InProgress she told me that she was done with Florida within the first few dates. I think she was trying to run me off, but I'm way too obstinate for that. I didn't really want to move; I'd only been in the state about two months and was still getting settled in comfortably. I considered the locale to be pretty ideal; warm year round, beaches, fishing, and I'd managed to get someone to pay me to move there. But it only takes a while before my feet get itchy.
And six years later we did move.
I traveled for work for about two years which helped me not get bored with FL. I pretty much only saw it one day a week – if I had the energy to get out and about. Then we started seriously discussing the AT hike. And what it would mean to our lives if we did take the leap and do it. And I waffled.
Rather than quit work and go hike I sought a position at a new building to be opened. I wanted North GA but it wasn't available; I got FL. Well actually I got both. I opened GA then got on a plane home and immefiately opened FL. It was 6 straight months of the kind of work that kills people between the hours and the stress. The kind that makes great war stories. I both loved and hated it, as is appropriate to such a situation.
After the trials, tribulations, worries, stresses and successes of these endeavors I was able to come to terms with leaving my job to hike and then move to Wisconsin.
We released the cats to roam at will in my parent's house. We were leary to do so since there are already 2 dachshunds and a cat in their place but we were pretty desperate at the point where we tried it. It's amazing how quickly and thoroughly 3 manic cats can exhaust you.
After an hour or so of acclimatization it worked like magic. Poorly executed messy magic, but magic nonetheless. Pixie "explored" my parent's bedroom closet a dozen times at least. Celeste HAD to be in a lap. Spike kept trying to get in (or perhaps out of) the windows. All of them ate the dog's food. But the constant meowing and pacing stopped.
The next morning I got busy and repacked and prepped for travel again. Then I discovered that the radio in the truck was dead. This is a very expensive double din unit I purchased and installed in February. It seems to be completely without power. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Kaput.
I went for the basics and determined that there is at least power to the wiring harness. When I pull/reinstall the fuse, the auxillary door tone box beeps. It's getting power through the radio harness. This leads me to believe that I am not going to fix the issue in 15 minutes and will probably have to send it in for warranty repair. Thus I will drive from GA to WI sans entertainment.
Roughing it, baby. Roughing it.


The Toyota Prius is a hybrid automobile from the Japanese automobile producer Toyota. It is called 'hybrid' because it has two different engines: a gasoline engine (combustion engine) and an electric motor. Because of the electric motor, it uses less fuel than a normal gasoline automobile when driving at low speeds (for example in the city). The electric motor uses batteries for its power, and these batteries are charged by a dynamo when the gasoline engine is used at higher speeds. The first generation launched in Japan in December 1997, then it reached the rest of the world in 2000. It entered its second generation in 2003 and it began to become more popular with buyers. The third generation arrived in 2009 and grew larger in size. The current fourth generation appeared in December 2015.

Babinac falu Horvátországban Belovár-Bilogora megyében. Közigazgatásilag Nagypisznicéhez tartozik.

Fekvése
Belovár központjától légvonalban 17, közúton 21 km-re délkeletre, községközpontjától légvonalban 4, közúton 8 km-re északnyugatra a Bilo-hegység déli lejtőin, a Strugovnica-patak partján fekszik.

Története
A határában talált régészeti leletek szerint Babinac területe már az őskorban is lakott volt. Stjepan Topolovčan szántóföldjén az újkőkori vonaldíszes kultúra egyik képviselőjéhez, az i. e. 4600 és 4200 között virágzott korenovói kulturához tartozó kerámia töredékek kerültek elő. A kultúra fő lelőhelye a Belovár melletti Malo Korenovo, melyről a nevét kapta.

A falu területe a 17. századtól népesült be, amikor a török által elpusztított, kihalt területre folyamatosan telepítették be a keresztény lakosságot. 1774-ben az első katonai felmérés térképén "Babinacz" néven találjuk. A település katonai közigazgatás idején a szentgyörgyvári ezredhez tartozott.

A katonai közigazgatás megszüntetése után Magyar Királyságon belül Horvát-Szlavónország részeként, Belovár-Kőrös vármegye Belovári járásának része volt. 1890-ben 591, 1931-ben 639 lakosa volt. 1918-ban az új szerb-horvát-szlovén állam, majd később Jugoszlávia része lett. 1941 és 1945 között a németbarát Független Horvát Államhoz, majd a háború után a szocialista Jugoszláviához tartozott. 1991-től a független Horvátország része. 1991-ben lakosságának 51%-a horvát, 18%-a albán, 13%-a szerb, 8%-a magyar nemzetiségű volt. 2011-ben 321 lakosa volt, akik főként mezőgazdasággal foglalkoztak.

Lakossága

(1857 és 1869, valamint 1910 és 1921 között lakosságát Bedenikhez számították.)

Press Advisories
Community Healthcare Network Hosts 7th Annual Transgender Health Conference in New York
October 1, 2017 by	fabian
FINAL Community Healthcare Network Press Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October xx, 2017
Contact: Stephanie Lilavois; 212.545.6231
slilavois@chnnyc.org
Community Healthcare Network Hosts 7th Annual Transgender Health Conference in New York at The New School
Conference to focus on the Redefining Transgender Health
(New York, NY) – Community Healthcare Network (CHN) will host its 7th annual Transgender Health Conference, in collaboration with The New School, New York City community health plan Amida Care, and the New York State Department of Health, on October 26th and 27th at The New School.
"The conference focuses the understanding of the journey of a person of trans experience—from the clinical obstacles they face to how they are affected by behavioral, societal and even legal challenges," said Freddy Molano, Vice President of Infectious Diseases and LGBTQ Programs, Community Healthcare Network. "Although amazing advancements have taken place, there is a need for much more growth in the clinical and societal understanding of people of trans experience, and our conference seeks to address just that."
Bamby Salcedo, the event's keynote speaker, is an award-winning advocate for the Trans Latina community. She is the founder of the Los Angeles-based TransLatina Coalition, and, in 2014, released the documentary Transvisible: Bamby Salcedo's Story. Her keynote will focus on the TransLatina experience in the United States, and the issues affecting people of trans experience.
The conference covers a range of clinical and social topics including health insurance, medications such as PrEP and PEP, legal issues faced by transgender communities, and preparation for gender-affirming surgery. The conference's second day (Oct. 27, 9 am – 12 noon), organized in partnership with Amida Care, focuses on information for licensed clinicians. Amida Care is New York's largest Medicaid special needs health plan for people living with chronic conditions such as HIV and provider of high-quality comprehensive health care to its significant population of transgender plan members.
"The HIV/AIDS epidemic has a disproportionate impact on the transgender community. People of transgender experience need and deserve access to comprehensive, culturally competent,
gender-affirming health care," said Doug Wirth, President and CEO of Amida Care. "We need to break down the barriers that keep health care out of reach for many in the transgender community, including violence, lack of employment opportunities, housing instability, and discrimination. This conference is an important, one-of-a-kind forum for ideas and solutions to address these disparities, and Amida Care is proud to be the lead health care sponsor."
Presenters include representatives from the NYS Department of Health, including the AIDS Institute and Bureau of HIV Prevention and Control; Mt. Sinai Medical Center; Amida Care; and experts in clinical, behavioral and legal care for transgender individuals, among others. A full copy of the program agenda, and background on all speakers is available on the conference website at: https://www.chnnyc.org/7th-annual-conference-transgender-health.
Transgender people have specific healthcare concerns and oftentimes face bias, discrimination, or ignorance when seeking medical care. CHN understands these concerns, and offers a unique and welcoming environment with high-quality medical care.
The organization, which founded its Transgender Family Health Program in 2004, is leading the field in transgender care. CHN is the first New York City-based Health Center to provide comprehensive services to patients of transgender experience in a family health setting. CHN serves nearly 450 transgender patients annually at their Bronx Health Center in the South Bronx, Family Health Center located in Jamaica, Queens and the CABS Health Center located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Bluewater Productions' Darren G. Davis has released a statement following the passing of Sen. Ted Kennedy on late Tuesday night at the age of 77.
Kennedy is the subject of an issue of Bluewater's Political Power series; the issue has been solicited for November.
"The country is a lesser place with the passing of Senator Kennedy. Regardless of where you stand on the political spectrum we could all learn a great deal if we followed his passion for public service.
"The timing of our announcement of a biography comic based on the life of Ted Kennedy was in no way tied to the Senator's declining health and ultimate passing. When Bluewater planned out the first year of biographies, Kennedy's name was always at the top of the list. In fact, this issue has been in production since March and was solicited to retail shops through our national distributor in June. We will, of course, pay final respects to this American icon by adding a page to the completed issue to close the last chapter of his remarkable life.
"We mourn his passing with the rest of the nation."
BOOM! Studios has released its solicitations for November.
Devil's Due Publishing has released its solicitations for November.

Q: Flip flop with load/set, reset, clk, and input I'm not looking for a hardware language description of the flip flop, but the logic gate level to implement.
In verilog, the equivalent I'm looking for is:
always@(posedge clk or negedge reset) begin
  if(~reset)
    Q <= 1'b0;
  else if(~load)
    Q <= D;
end

I've looked at: http://reviseomatic.org/help/e-flip-flop/4013%20D-Type%20Flip%20Flop.php
and
http://www.csee.umbc.edu/~squire/images/dff.jpg
the problem with the above implementation is that after I set a value to Q (D=0,Q=0,load=0) with load(set in picture) = 0, then when i set load high load = 1 on the next clk cycle, i get (D=x,Q=1,load=1). In order words, changing load from true to false will change the value of Q, but I want Q to hold it's previous value.
What is a flip flop that would hold it's value on Q after it has been set and enable is set high?

A: You should try looking up a mux flop.
It has a mux in front of the standard d-type and connects it input to output when load is not selected.

A: Your problem is that 'synchronous load enable' is not the same as 'asynchronous set'. Your Verilog code shows a F/F with an async reset, and a synchronous load enable. Your first (reviseomatic) reference is just nonsense - ignore it. It attempts (wrongly) to describe a 4013, which doesn't have a load enable. I haven't looked at the second reference in detail, but it looks like a conventional latch-based implementation of a F/F with async active-low set and reset.
You can implement flops in several ways:

*

*For a CMOS transmission-gate flop implementation, see the NXP
datasheet for a 4013

*For latch-based TTL, see the
datasheet for a 7474

*The old TI databooks used to show flop
    implementations using async feedback circuits.

For the synchronous load control part, look at Morgan's mux link.

On The Seven Mile Bridge
by: Mary Beth Ellis
Jimmy Buffett built an empire on a single four-minute song. After his breakthrough "Margartiaville" became a hit in 1977, he sustained a concert-laden career which has since expanded into hotels, blenders, candle scents, key lime pie filling, and even a senior citizen's village in Florida. Everyone, it seems, wants to buy into a lifestyle of swinging on a hammock between two palm trees, frozen drink in hand. The song's origin and Buffett's own career, however, are the result of anything but relaxation. Already a shrewd businessman as a journeyman singer, Buffett began writing the song in Texas and halted it mid-lyric to drive to Key West, FL, best known as the southernmost point of the United States. As Buffett neared the island, however, he was stuck in traffic. An accident on the Seven Mile Bridge, the only to and from the mainland by vehicle, prevented anyone from moving. With the Gulf of Mexico to his right and the Atlantic Ocean to his left, Jimmy Buffett was trapped in his truck. With nowhere to go, Buffett might have taken a nap. He might have stared into the water or tried to chat up some of the ladies trapped in line around him. But instead, Buffett fished out his notes and his pencil and started completing verses. By the time the jam cleared, he had in his hands the rest of an astonishingly successful career. What if he had taken that nap instead? Lent can seem a fallow time, with the ordinary Mass omitting certain elements, catechumens counting down the final days until they join as at the Lord's table, and chocolate-starved, fasting parishioners working their way through penance. But this is not merely a time of waiting and holding. It's fertile soil—a time underground, perhaps, but one that might be spent in generation, in bringing the essential nutrients of faith into our souls. Don't allow the outward somberness of Lent blot out the view of the empty tomb which await us. We can mark this time staring out the window, or we can create.

AWARDS REMINDER - greystonesacs jimdo page!
be held at Charlesland Golf Club at 7pm. Awards for Attitude, Achievement & Attendance will be presented as well as our 5yr & 10yr club memberships awards, team awards and Senior and Juvenile 'Athlete of the Year' for 2014. Refreshments will be served afterwards. All athletes and their families are most welcome. As this is being held on one of our regular training nights we hope that this year everyone will be available to attend. This is a great opportunity to see your children's efforts being rewarded and a chance to meet the coaches and have a chat!
These awards are being presented for 2014, so athletes who only joined this year or late in 2014 will not have the required Attendances etc. You are however very welcome to attend and hopefully you will work hard during the remainder of this year and be back here next year receiving your own awards!
THERE WILL BE NO TRAINING THIS TUESDAY FROM 6-7PM pm & 7 –8.30PM DUE TO THE CLUB AWARDS NIGHT! ! LITTLE ATHLETICS WILL RUN AS NORMAL FROM 5-6PM!
This year all athletes are being issued with Life Registration cards. Some of these have arrived and we will hand them out to parents at the Awards night. These cards now have just a Life Number., which members will have for their entire athletic career instead, of getting a new registration number every year. This is the number that will be used for all entries. Consequently athletes/parents need to look after these cards, as they will no longer be replaced every year.
We urgently need help at the 6-7pm training sessions. The total number of children attending at this time is 100 and we have waiting lists on all 4 groups. Only two of the present coaches have children in these groups and we are appealing to parents of these children to come on board and help with the training, otherwise we will not be able to continue with all of the groups. We really do not want to have to suspend groups, but will not be left with any other option if we don't get some help soon. If any adults are available to help out, it would be greatly appreciated. We promise not to throw you in at the deep end and we will get you on to a coaching course asap. If you can help out once a week, or alternate with another parent every other week, please let us know.
Help is also urgently needed to cover check-in at 6pm & 7.30pm please. We are down to a small number of parents who are trying to cover all the sessions, or back to coaches trying to do this which delays the training, resulting in us being late finishing. This only takes about 15-20 mins max. but is a huge help to the smooth running of our training sessions.
This year's Wicklow Championships will be held on two evenings & 1 full day, Fri 1st May, Fri 8th May & Sat 9th May. Full programme is posted on the sidebar of our website and there is a link on our entry form. All GAC athletes of all ages who want to compete in this year's Championships must register on our website for each day they intend to compete. You must also list the events you intend to compete in each day. Form is now up on our web site and closing date for all entries will be Tues. 28th Apr. No entries can be accepted after this date, so make sure you are in on time!
EXPLANATION OF AWARD SCHEME FOR NEW PARENTS.
Children up to age 10 in 2015 (U11), take part in an award scheme at the County Championships on Saturday 9th May, there are no individual events for these age groups. Each child competes in 3 events, a sprint, a long jump and a turbo javelin throw, and their points are calculated to get a finishing score. All athletes who compete in all 3 events will get a medal on the day. The top scorers will get gold, the next group silver and the remainder bronze. Those who don't complete the competition, ie all 3 events, will not receive a medal. It will take a while to get through all the events for all the age groups and as the relays for the younger age groups are also on the Sat. afternoon, please come prepared to spend the day. If we are lucky enough to get good weather it can be a very enjoyable day!
There are longer races and Obstacle Relays on Fri 1st May for these younger age groups, which start at 6.30pm and will be done within the hour. We have not included events on Fri 8th to leave them fresh for the Sat. competitions.

So you're inspired and want to know more about a hot tub, what's the next step?
The first step is to go and visit a dealer, a good dealer won't pressure you into purchasing but will listen to your needs, provide recommendations, allow to you see, touch and experience a number of different hot tubs so you can make an informed choice. They will also be able to answer any questions you have about hot tubs, delivery and installation, and after sales support.

"For me Kenton's thinking is second to none. The Mind Reading Lessons are not a need or a want, they are a must! If you want to learn from a pro, no a master, at how do things right the right way the first time, then you need Kenton's Mind Reading Lessons! I still use Kenton's work in my everyday life and I know I will continue to go back to it time and time again."
The Mind Reading Lessons are The Tarbell of the Mentalistic and Mystery arts. They are essential reading and some of the most important teachings available. If you are at all serious about learning the real secrets and concepts that often underline and weave through my own ideas and work then you need this course as a foundation."
This is the second volume of The Mind Reading Lessons. It is nearly 500 pages in length, with no filler images or nonsense.
This is Kenton's classic work on Mind Reading, Mentalism and Readings, finally in a hardbound book, that changed countless attitudes, approaches, methods and psychology in mentalism, performing readings, psychological performance demonstrations and mentalism itself.
Nowhere else can spend this kind of money and get more modern mentalism with original breakthrough methodologies than here.
If you have the very basics of mentalism down and are ready to kick your abilities up to the next level of super-mentalism that goes beyond what most are able to achieve, then you are ready for this incredible life and performance changing course.
Nothing else is like the Mind Reading Lessons. These original methods and approaches not taught or found anywhere else.
You can stay where you are, buy all the little things new mentalists want to sell you, and end up spending thousands while getting you nowhere. Or you can learn from the Master directly for a fraction of the price, and elevate yourself to the rare levels only the very best in mentalism otherwise achieve.
In the Mind Reading Lessons Vol. 2, you will learn our famous approach to outs that never fail to make an impression, how to do readings without fear, POW images that let you print out and make your own images and unique readings card deck - including downloads when you order to print out and use right away, symbolic outs, our School's secret way of writing impressions and readings, surefire impressions, surefire readings with predictions, artistic and visual impressions, drawing duplication readings, impromptu and subjective book tests, slip of a reading effect, beauty and truth and ESP, "Date of Death", altered states and ritual, Ultra Mental Archetypes, TarotFried, White Envelope Test, Stand Up Z, Z Perfect Match, ESP Symbol Meanings, symbolism in readings, Tag You're It Book Test, Lo-Tech Secret Information Gathering, SSV Device (the forerunner to many things you spend thousands of dollars on), Capping It Off, Triple Intuition, Bottled Emotions, Fraser's Mind Reading Explained, Hezi's Kosher Test, Fraser's A Passing Thought, Kenton's Reverse Polarity Metaphor Spiel, and more.
Sure, that looks like a lot of material, but you get a great deal more than what we can mention here. This is a stunning amount of material and deep inside information.
This is Volume 2 of the Mind Reading Lessons in a hardbound book. This second volume contains all the material from the original Mind Reading Lessons 5 - 8. Over 400 pages in Volume 2.


The Tour de France is well underway, and this great cycling event wouldn't be complete without some colourful characters to cheer on the riders. It's commonplace to see spectators such as El Diablo running on the roadside alongside their heroes, even if it is potentially quite dangerous and frowned upon by the event organisers.
This year it was the turn of a trio of intrepid bare-footed Nintendo cosplayers, who all appear to have taken invincibility stars to allow them to keep up with Team Sky's yellow jersey wearing Chris Froome... if only for a short time.
Apologies for the poor quality video footage, but we're sure you'll agree this is quite an entertaining spectacle when accompanied with powered-up Mario theme music.
Ha, I saw this last night... although, I didn't see Wario. I guess Waluigi dislikes bikes?
Now we just need this to inspire a crossover game... MARIO & MEGA MAN AT THE TOUR DE FRANCE....what? Sonic is busy with the Olympics (and fixing his franchise).
@DarthNocturnal Waluigi's more of a pro-bending fan. He is a waterbender, after all.
If only there was a fire flower about, then Mario could have easily defeated the competition.
Ha, I noticed this, people really love the Tour de France.
It's hilarious how many Nascar idiots there are that make fun of this race. Yet all they do is make left turns. Again. And again.
Ha that's funny, they should have went with Sonic "Gotta go fast!"
Wario needs to step it up.
Strange, Waluigi's always bundled with the sports games!
Very nice, i watch it every day, love the tour.


I am down in the Dunnellon area from Jacksonville. I have an 87 Mercury 35 horse 2 stroke that I can not get started. Is there a good person around that could either get it running or get me looking in the right direction? I have replaced the plugs, cleaned the fuel filters. Removed the fly wheel and cleaned up all the brushes on the magnetic pick ups and points.
If your not living on the Edge, you are taking up to much space.
are you looking for business recomendations? if so i cant help...if you are just looking for another brain to pick we will need more info. does it have spark? when were the carb(s) last gone through? are you sure the gas is good?
Could be water in the gas. Give us some more symptoms and I bet someone will know the answer.
Are the plugs actually fireing? when was it last run? using a gas stabilizer?


The ISM Manufacturing Index fell to 50.8 points in April – down 1.0 point from March's reading of 51.8. However, the manufacturing industry is still growing, as readings above 50 indicate expansion. Of the eighteen manufacturing industries, eleven reported growth, while four reported contraction.

Q: Getting anchor that contains bold tags with xPath? I am using xpath and I am trying to get the anchor text from a link that looks like this:
anchor text

I tried getting the anchor text with the xPath:
.//a/text()

But I only get "text" as result, not "anchor text".
How do I get the full text?

A:
.//a/text()

The reason that the text node containing "anchor" is because this text node is child of b -- not child of a. The above expression selects only text nodes that are children of any a that is a descendant of the current context node.
Use:
.//a//text()

This selects all text-nodes that are descendants of all a elements that are descendents of the current context node.


Christmas is coming up, but if you don't want to spend it at home, then a vacation away may just be the ticket for you this festive season! Think about it. You won't need to put up with the slew of Christmas visitors through your door. You won't need to worry about your electricity bill with your annual Christmas light battle with your neighbours. And you won't need to load your pantry with food as you might choose to stay in a place where all the catering will be done for you.
The only thing you need to worry about is where to go, but we do have some ideas for you. Consider it our Christmas gift to you for coming to this website. Check out my last minute booking tips if you are worried about being too late to book a trip, and then read on to find the perfect destination for you.
Colorado is a veritable winter wonderland; just the place to go if your hometown isn't expecting any snow this year. With a range of towering mountains, this is the place to be if you're interested in staying at one of the ski resorts - check out this Colorado ski mountains map - but there is more to grab your attention if you're a bit wobbly on the slopes.
Step onto the Polar Express at the popular Christmas town of Durango, and make your way to Santa's village for a festival of lights, festive songs, and cookies and hot cocoa. Or head over to Breckenridge, a Victorian-themed town that really comes into its own at this time of year. Take a trip on a horse-drawn carriage through the Victorian streets, and wave to the carolers who will be wearing traditional Victorian clothing. It's here where you will get to see the annual Race of the Santas, with more Clauses than you can throw a snowball at! If you have small kids with you, then the town of Cascade is a fun place to visit. With a Christmas-themed amusement park and a train ride to see Santa and his elves at the top of a mountain, you and your children will be spellbound. And finally, there's Georgetown. A perfect holiday destination if you're looking for last-minute holiday gifts, as there is a magnificent Christmas market which is just the thing for your festive shopping.
With Santa, snow, and lots of ho ho ho (sorry), there are plenty of places in Colorado that will warm your heart, even if you're a bit chilly on the outside.
Many of our favorite Christmas movies have been set in New York, including those perennial favorites Elf, Miracle on 34th Street, and Home Alone 2. This is certainly the place to be if you're a movie buff, and you can visit some of the locations made famous in those movies, including Rockefeller Center, Central Park, and Macy's Department Store. Of course, these places are worth visiting, even if you don't give a festive hoot about those classic movies.
Check out Macy's Santaland, for example, an indoor favorite for the kids which will make your shopping excursion in-store more bearable for them. With caroling snowmen, reindeer and Santa himself, this is a magical experience for young and old. Book a place early though as the lines to see the white-bearded one are absolutely huge! If you're wanting to go ice skating, there are ice rinks available at both the Rockefeller Center and Central Park, but we advise on the latter for the shorter wait times and the killer view of the New York City Skyline. Still, the Rockefeller Center is the place to be if you want the ultimate Christmas experience. With the annual Christmas tree lighting, as well as the razzle-dazzle of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, you will be in awe at the extravagance on display in this very special part of the city. And there's all that, as well as carols in Carnegie Hall, seasonal art at the Metropolitan Museum, and the world-famous festive displays at Bergdorf Goodman Holiday Windows.
New York is a truly magical place to be, and just like Kevin McCallister discovered, this is one place worth getting lost in!
Forget about the fake Santas in New York and Colorado, a trip to Lapland will enable you to get up close and personal with the 'real' Santa (or so we are told), thousands of miles away from those bearded impostors. This is the perfect place to take your children, with the fabulous Santa Village, as well as a Christmassy theme park which will delight all who set foot within this festive wonderland.
Still, there's more to Lapland than Santa (hope that doesn't put me on the naughty list).
Check out the fabulous light show that is the Northern Lights, a natural phenomenon that is so much more than any Christmas light display you will see this year! You can go on a snowmobile safari, or sit in a sled while being pulled along by huskies or reindeer. If skiing is your thing, then the alpine settings of Ylläs Ski Resort should be your destination of choice, with plenty of off-piste slopes to explore. And then there's Lainio Snow Village, a fabulous place built entirely of snow and ice, with a hotel, ice bar, and some absolutely stunning snow and ice sculptures. You can even get married in the Ice Chapel, although you may want to forego the usual wedding dress in a bid to stay warm.
Lapland is a winter wonderland and provided you can stand the cold, this is a place worth visiting for the young and the young at heart!
If you're looking for a Christmas vacation, then you may just have found what you are looking for. Head online, check out the hotel prices and then book yourself a visit. Let me know what you think, and if you have any other ideas perfect for a Christmas getaway, then be sure to let me know!

George Hotel, formerly The Terminus and Seaview 1857 -
125-129 Fitzroy Street, corner Grey Street, St Kilda
MEL: 58 A8
George Hotel, 1881
Grey Street with the George Hotel at left, c.1876
The trajectory of the history of the George Hotel, from grandeur to dilapidation and back again, is said to reflect the fortunes of St Kilda itself. While the current building was constructed in stages between 1880 and 1930, the Terminus Hotel, as it was known until 1868, was built in 1857 to cater to the passengers travelling from Melbourne to the newly opened St Kilda railway line terminus opposite. Architect Robert Risby Cowl called for tenders for additions in 1873 and for sash frames and a staircase in 1874.In a business where the turnover of licensees is often rapid, the George appears as an anomaly remaining within one family for much of its life. Frederick Wimpole was its proprietor and publican from 1874, while his son Frederick, took over from the 1900s to the 1950s.
During this period, the hotel underwent several physical renovations. The corner section, designed by Harry B Gibbs, is a large and ornate example of Boom-style Italianate architecture. By 1930 successive additions created a 169-room hotel, which rendered it one of the largest and most well known hotels in Victoria, and certainly the largest in Melbourne outside the city. The rear wing contains the large dining room, now known as the highly decorated and richly historical Ballroom. During the 1930s, it was a favoured wedding venue for fashionable brides. Even during the war years when other hotels were suffering the after-effects of the Depression, the George's very proper reputation seemed untarnished. Yet, like post-war St Kilda itself, more a centre for cheap housing than a tourist resort, the George could not retain its classy image.The George, renamed the Seaview in 1976, became the centre of Melbourne's alternative and punk music scenes. With the burgeoning popularity of punk and new wave, the venue, known varyingly as the Wintergarden, Crystal Ballroom, Seaview Ballroom or Ballroom, played host to up-and-coming local bands, most notably Nick Cave and the Birthday Party, but also INXS and Hunters and Collectors. By 1987, however, the hotel's associations with drug dealing and other criminal behaviour led to a forced closure and de-licensing. In 1991, the hotel was reopened by restaurant entrepreneur Donlevy Fitzpatrick, whose visionary redevelopment in 1996-97 contained apartments, with bars, cafes and shops at ground level, and the ballroom becoming a function room.

THE LEGEND OF SAILOR JERRY | TATTOO MASTER NORMAN COLLINS
If you don't know who Sailor Jerry is– you don't know tattoos. Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins (1911-1973) is considered the foremost American tattoo artist of his time, and defined the craft in two eras– BSJ and ASJ (before and after Sailor Jerry). Arguably, he did more for the ancient art of tattoo than most any other single person.
At age 19, Sailor Jerry enlisted in the US Navy. It was during his travels at sea that he was exposed to the art and imagery of Southeast Asia. Artistically, his influence stems from his union of the roguish attitude of the American sailor with the mysticism and technical prowess of the Far East. He maintained a close correspondence with Japanese tattoo masters during his career.
Sailor Jerry regarded tattoos as the ultimate rebellion against "the Squares". His legendary sense of humor is oft reflected in his work– but he was never one to compromise his professionalism or take his craft and responsibilities lightly.
Sailor Jerry's first studio was in Honolulu's Chinatown, then the only place on the island where tattoo studios were located. His work was so widely copied, he had to print "The Original Sailor Jerry" on his business cards. There's a guy up in Canada that goes by the same name, but don't be fooled– although he's good in his own right, he ain't the original Sailor Jerry.
Sailor Jerry remained a sailor his entire life. Even during his career as a tattoo artist, he worked as licensed skipper of a large three-masted schooner, on which he conducted tours of the Hawaiian islands. Sailing and tattooing were his only two professional endeavors.
Sailor Jerry went out of his way to mentor those tattoo artists whose talents and attitude he respected, among them tattoo legends Don Ed Hardy and Mike Malone, to whom he entrusted his legacy of flash designs. He also railed against flashy tattoo artists such as Lyle Tuttle, and what he called "hippie tattoo" culture.
From his 20s to his late 50s, he stopped tattooing entirely as a part of a disagreement with the IRS. Believe it or not, Sailor Jerry only tattooed for approximately 12 years.
In 1999, Ed Hardy and Mike Malone partnered with an independent Philadelphia company to establish Sailor Jerry Ltd., which produces rum, clothing and other goods. Some say that Ed Hardy sold his old mentor, Sailor Jerry, up the river– taking much credit for Jerry's style and pocketing the dough. Sailor Jerry (and Von Dutch alike) may be rolling in his grave.
Originally there were few colors available to tattoo artists– Sailor Jerry expanded the array by developing his own safe pigments. He also created needle formations that embedded pigment with much less trauma to the skin, and was one of the first to utilize single-use needles and hospital-quality sterilization.

Flashback 2003: Apple Launches iTunes Store
SV Staff | Apr 28, 2016
Original (left) and current iTunes logos.
Thirteen years ago today Apple launched the iTunes Music Store, allowing music lovers to buy and download music from top artists in digital form instead of having to copy MP3 files or ripping CDs into iTunes.
The service kicked off with 200,000 songs and sold 1 million songs at 99 cents a pop in the first week, establishing a new model for music distribution that would ultimately be embraced by a music industry consumed by digital rights management (DRM) as a means to combat piracy.
Today there are "more than 43 million high-quality, DRM-free songs on iTunes for just 69 cents, 99 cents, or $1.29 each."
Here's the original press release:
CUPERTINO, California—April 28, 2003—Apple® today launched the iTunes® Music Store, a revolutionary online music store that lets customers quickly find, purchase and download the music they want for just 99 cents per song, without subscription fees. The iTunes Music Store offers groundbreaking personal use rights, including burning songs onto an unlimited number of CDs for personal use, listening to songs on an unlimited number of iPods, playing songs on up to three Macintosh® computers, and using songs in any application on the Mac®, including iPhoto™, iMovie™ and iDVD™.
"The iTunes Music Store offers the revolutionary rights to burn an unlimited number of CDs for personal use and to put music on an unlimited number of iPods for on-the-go listening," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "Consumers don't want to be treated like criminals and artists don't want their valuable work stolen. The iTunes Music Store offers a groundbreaking solution for both."
The iTunes Music Store features over 200,000 songs from music companies including BMG, EMI, Sony Music Entertainment, Universal and Warner. Users can easily search the entire music store to instantly locate any song by title, artist or album, or browse the entire collection of songs by genre, artist and album. Users can listen to a free 30-second high-quality preview of any song in the store, then purchase and download their favorite songs or complete albums in pristine digital quality with just one click.
The iTunes Music Store also features exclusive tracks from over 20 artists, including Bob Dylan, U2, Eminem, Sheryl Crow and Sting, as well as special music videos from several of these artists which users can watch for free. In addition, the iTunes Music Store highlights new releases, staff favorites and up-and-coming artists, and delivers a compelling variety of music from many genres and time periods, ranging from Rock and Hip Hop to Jazz and Classical. The ability to browse the entire music store by genre, artist and album combined with free high-quality previews of every song lets users explore music in an entirely new way, to easily find the hits they love and discover gems they've never heard before.
All music on the iTunes Music Store is encoded in the industry-standard AAC audio format at 128 kilobits per second which enables smaller files and faster download times while rivaling CD-quality sound superior to the quality of MP3 files at the same size. The AAC audio format, developed by Dolby, was also adopted to provide the audio encoding for the industry-standard MPEG-4 video format.
The iTunes Music Store is fully integrated into iTunes® 4, the fourth major release of Apple's popular digital music jukebox software, allowing users to purchase, download, organize and listen to their music using just one application. iTunes 4 features major new enhancements including Rendezvous™ music-sharing between Macs, so users can legally stream their music to other Macs without the hassle of copying files from computer to computer.
iTunes 4 with the iTunes Music Store is available as a free download immediately at www.apple.com/itunes. The iTunes Music Store requires a valid credit card with a U.S. billing address, a Mac equipped with iTunes 4 and Mac® OS X version 10.1.5 or later. Further information about Apple's digital music products can be found at www.apple.com/ipod and www.apple.com/music.
Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh. Apple is committed to bringing the best personal computing experience to students, educators, creative professionals and consumers around the world through its innovative hardware, software and Internet offerings.

REPORT: CNN's January 6th Coverage Bombed In The Ratings
CNN devoted almost their entire day to coverage of the so-called 'insurrection' on January 6th, but it didn't do them much good.
They were obviously looking to replicate their ratings from January 6th in 2021, but it didn't work.
They lost out to FOX News and MSNBC.
Red State reports:
The Ratings Are in for CNN's January 6th Obsession—and Hoo Boy
Does this qualify as poetic justice? Because this feels a lot like poetic justice.
The ratings are in for CNN's "commemoration" coverage of January 6th, and hoo boy, they are not good. The network played out a full day of hand-wringing and tortured analysis, culminating in a two-hour event live from Statuary Hall inside the Capitol Building. All the stops were pulled out, including a headlining interview with Nancy Pelosi.
The obvious goal was to stimulate a repeat of last year's blockbuster, January 6th ratings, where CNN led all other networks in viewership as the events unfolded. In a phrase, that didn't happen. In fact, the liberal network got absolutely trounced by Fox News.
They point to this data from News Busters:
According to a Fox News press release, FNC defeated CNN "in every hour across both categories" as the Jeff Zucker-led channel was only able to fetch 742,869 total viewers overall and 139,202 across Thursday in the demo.
MSNBC was able to best CNN in total viewers with about 1.049 million viewers, but narrowly lost in the 25-54 group as the Comcast-owned property garnered just 136,019 viewers.
And in the key 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Eastern block during which President Biden and Vice President Harris delivered remarks from Statuary Hall, CNN and MSNBC still couldn't pull in a sizable audience.
Instead, Fox News still came out on top with America's Newsroom pulling in 1.58 million total viewers and 232,112 in the demo versus 1.083 million and 144,832 for MSNBC and 1.106 million and 190,613 for CNN.
CNN's Insurrection Porn Day didn't pay off in ratings!
Thursday saw Fox's 1.77 million total average day viewers significantly beat CNN's 845,000 and MSNBC's 1.18 million.
During prime time, Fox's average of 2.83 million total day viewers led CNN's 1.14M and MSNBC's 1.92M

What a shame.
No one cares about January 6th as much as Democrats and CNN.

Calvin Harris a modest beginning
by CelebMix August 8, 2015, 2:07 pm
When Calvin turned 20 he came to London from Scotland to try and pursue a career in music, however, as it is very tough to get into the music industry it was incredibly hard for him. He was working at Marks and Spencer's at the time and had no choice but to move back home to Scotland as his pay was less than his rent.
When he returned home his Dad told him to try and get a trade and become a plumber or electrician, still as Myspace had just come out Calvin thought he may as well give it another try. He added everyone he knew who was an artist or in the music industry.
Felix Haword who wrote such songs as Overload for the Sugarbabes saw Calvin's music on Myspace and was looking for acts to sign as he had just joined EMI publishing. Felix signed Calvin and the rest is history.
Originally Calvin wanted to be a producer but ended up becoming a DJ. Now he mainly wants to work on his music instead of concentrating on gigging as now he only goes to Ibiza once a year when it used to be 3 times a year.
He was offered a modelling deal by Armani but turned it down straight away as he wasn't interested but after 6 months of thinking about it he went back to Armani and agreed to do it.
Calvin now lives in L.A. and it feels like he is always on Holiday and due to his lifestyle he never has the time to take a real one.

Our Building's History
A Duchess for tea at ESM!
On Wednesday 16th October, Eaton Square Mayfair hosted the launch of the Poetry Together initiative. An incredible project brought to life by Gyles Brandreth and Dukes Education.
Poetry Together is all about bringing young and old together to share in the joy of performing poetry, which is exactly what happened on Wednesday.
We welcomed five groups of children and older people from all around the country, one group came all the way from Wales!
Poetry Together has the support of Her Royal Highness, the Duchess of Cornwall, and we were incredibly fortunate to be able to welcome her to the school for this special event. Mr Wilson was delighted that he and a group of ESM pupils were able to be among the welcoming party for Her Royal Highness, who spoke to them about the school and the history of the building.
She thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the performances, and even took part herself in a rendition of the poem Matilda, with some children from Knightsbridge School.
After everyone had the chance to perform, and receive their certificate from Her Royal Highness, it was time for tea. and what a tea it was! our fantastic ESM chef Felipe out did himself with the incredible Victoria sponge cakes he made for everyone to enjoy. The Duchess of Cornwall wove neatly around all the tables, so everyone had a chance to meet her and chat about their schools, care homes and towns. All too quickly it was time for her to go and the afternoon came to an end. But what an afternoon we all had, certainly one that none of us will forget for a long time.
Thank you to everyone who made this such a special day!

Dolly Parton's Strawberry Pretzel Pie Ice Cream Is Selling For Over $1000 Online
Rae Batchelor
Dolly Parton can do anything. She can sing, she can act, she can help fund the coronavirus vaccine, she can provide books to children all over the country, and now you're telling me she can make an incredibly successful ice cream flavor too?
We're all lucky to be alive at the same time as Dolly Parton, but not everyone was lucky enough to get their hands on that ice cream!
Dolly Parton is a true legend.
You can't tell me you don't belt along to 'Jolene' or '9 To 5' or 'I Will Always Love You' or 'Islands In The Stream' whenever they come on, because everyone does.
The only thing that could improve listening to a Dolly song would be eating ice cream made by Dolly herself!
Dolly tried to make that dream a reality by teaming up with Jen's Ice Cream to launch her own flavor — Strawberry Pretezel Pie!
"I've teamed up with @JenisIceCreams to create my very own flavor in support of @imaginationlibrary! Strawberry Pretzel Pie is available at Jeni's April 8," she wrote on Instagram.
If you thought it would sell out quick, you were right!
The flavor was so popular, the amount of people trying to order it even crashed the website!
Apparently people were pretty desperate to get their hands on that ice cream, because more than one eBay listing popped up selling a pint of the ice cream for $1000, plus shipping!
Now that really is one way to make a living!
Would you be willing to shell out a grand for Dolly Parton's ice cream, or were you lucky enough to get your hands on your very own pint? Let us know in the comments below!

The Role of the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Signaling in Biomineralization of the Oyster Crassostrea gigas Authors: Anna V. Ivanina

Frontiers Media S.A
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) play a role in early development, organogenesis, and regeneration, as well as biomineralization of invertebrates. The involvement of VEGF and VEGFR in biomineralization was demonstrated in sea urchin larvae but its role in the biomineralization of other invertebrate groups such as mollusks is not known. We assessed the potential role of VEGF signaling on biomineralization of a model marine bivalve, the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, by analyzing the effects of a VEGFR inhibitor (50 nM axitinib) on shell growth, shell hardness, and expression profiles of biomineralization-related genes. Bioinformatics analysis identified a wide range of biomineralization-related genes potentially activated by VEGF including carbonic anhydrases (CAs), sodium/proton and sodium/calcium exchangers, calmodulins, and genes involved in chitin metabolism. Exposure to a VEGFR inhibitor axitinib led to upregulation of CAs (CA7 and CA12), sodium/proton exchanger 10, sodium/calcium exchanger 1 and 3, as well as calmodulin mRNA in hemocytes (HCs). In the mantle tissue, axitinib exposure led to a compensatory upregulation of VEGFR mRNA but did not affect the expression of other studied biomineralization genes. Expression of VEGF, VEGFR mRNA, or that of the downstream biomineralization-related genes in a non-biomineralizing tissue (the gill) was not affected by axitinib. The shell mass was higher in the axitinib treatment group. Inhibition of VEGFR led to significant increase in shell microhardness, and to a small but statistically significant decrease in crystallinity. Our results therefore indicate that, although VEGF signaling might not play a crucial role in shell biomineralization of C. gigas as it does in mammals and echinoderms, it is involved in regulation of shell formation in bivalves and that effects of VEGF on biomineralization are likely mediated by HCs.

Q: Hadoop Cluster Hardware: Few large vs many small we are looking for some help deciding what hardware to buy to support an internal Hadoop cluster. My company currently uses 1 dedicated server for Hadoop which has 196GB ram and 24cores and 6 1TB SATA hard drives. We are wanting to scale up our capacity but are unsure what to buy for the best value. We are looking to spend around £10k on equipment and have considered blades such as dell PE m710 where we can get 8 blades each with 12 cores, 288 GB ram and 4x600 GB SAS drives with enclosure for our budget. Is this a good use of the money available or would better spec newer servers be more appropriate?
Many thanks for any help

A:
dell PE m710 where we can get 8 blades each with 12 cores, 288 GB ram and 4x600 GB SAS drives

*

*Hadoop node should be cheap(supermicro for example) and have 2U size.

*600 GB SAS - bad choice. You need something like 12x4GB SATA 7200rpm w/o RAID

*The most important thing is a network. You should use 10Ge or 1G with Bonding.

We recently received this 2012 Mazda R2 diesel engine into the workshop for a rebuild. It wouldn't turn over and had obviously seized up. So we bolted it up onto a stand and pushed it into the stripping bay for disassembly and inspection. We noticed a few interesting things during the process.
Firstly, when we removed the valve cover, there were some large lumps of burnt oil around number two injector. There weren't the soft lumps that you find in sludged-up engines. These ones you can squash between your fingers. These were hard and brittle, like old lumps of plastic.
Not surprisingly number two injector was seized into the head, and was quite difficult to remove. Once we finally got is out, it was black and tarred with strong evidence of blow-by. Next out came the seal, and as you can see in the pic, combustion gases had been escaping past the seal and into the injector tube. We think that these gases effectively cooked the engine oil in the valve train area of the head, creating the hard lumps.
Next, we removed the head. You can see from the pic that one piston had been hitting the cylinder head, leaving the marks on the head. This can only mean a conrod bearing failure. You see, as the conrod bearing fails, the clearance between the conrod and crankshaft journal increases, effectively lengthening the stroke. This is what allowed the piston to contact the cylinder head.
So what caused the bearing failure? This became obvious once we had removed the sump. As you can see in the pics, the oil pump pick-up was completely blocked by, you guessed it, small hard lumps of burnt oil.
So here's what happened. A failed injector seal allowed combustion gases into the valve train area of cylinder head. Over time, these gases cooked the engine oil and created hard lumps of burnt oil. The lumps broke up and made their way down into the sump as part of the engine's normal oil circulation. Once they were in the sump, they became jammed in the oil pump pick-up, blocking oil circulation. Lack of oil caused the conrod bearing failure, seizing the engine.
Hi there. I came across this article during research following my purchase of a 2010 2.2d model. Please could you advise what the best option would be for me. Is it advisable to remove the sump and clean the pickup? If it is clear can I assume the injectors are fine or should I be removing and checking them aswell? I have had a look yet but is the sump an easy removal or are there any other items that complicate removal. Ie shafts, exhaust, gearbox etc?

Client History: CDW's GetEdFunding - GetEdFunding.com CDW-G, together with their marketing consultant, came to Cuesta with an idea about how they could make the lives of educators who were seeking funding opportunities easier. They were looking to build a fully comprehensive, easy-to-use Website that would allow educators and education non-profits to find grants by a number of very specific categories, including the ability to search national or State-specific grants by subject, grade level, focus and more.
The backend of the system needed to be powerful and easy-to-use for their marketing professionals who were new to Website management at the time. They required a site that would display certain opportunities to any visitor, but only allow registered users to access the complete database of hundreds or thousands of grants. The site was so successful in it's first year that it was awarded a Beacon Award by the AEP. A prestigious award such as this, received after only 8 months of operation, reflects history in the making.

Wiener, M.J. (1990) Cryptanalysis of Short RSA Secret Exponents. IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 36, 553-558.
ABSTRACT: Cryptography is the study that provides security service. It concerns with confidentiality, integrity, and authentication. Public key cryptography provides an enormous revolution in the field of the cryptosystem. It uses two different keys where keys are related in such a way that, the public key can use to encrypt the message and private key can be used to decrypt the message. This paper proposed an enhanced and modified approach of RSA cryptosystem based on "n" distinct prime number. This existence of "n" prime number increases the difficulty of the factoring of the variable "N" which increases the complexity of the algorithm. In this approach, two different public key and private key generated from the large factor of the variable "N" and perform a double encryption-decryption operation which affords more security. Experiment on a set of a random number provided that the key generation time, analysis of variable "N", encryption and decryption will take a long time compared to traditional RSA. Thus, this approach is more efficient, highly secured and not easily breakable.
